.NET Core is a free and open-source software [4] implementation of the Common Language Infrastructure (CLI), developed by the .NET_Foundation. [5] It is a fork of the proprietary .NET Framework, [6] but it has been modified to be more modular and cross-platform. It consists of CoreCLR runtime, an implementation of the Common Language Runtime (CLR), and CoreFX framework libraries, a partial implementation of the Base Class Library (BCL). Additionally, it comes with an improved JIT compiler, called RyuJIT. [7] The .NET Compiler Platform (codenamed "Roslyn") and LLILC compiler are sister projects that support .NET Core. [8] [9]
The main goal of the project is "to create a modular, performant and cross-platform execution environment for modern applications". [8] The project is hosted at GitHub. [10]
